Shelley would be great to watch any ones pet. I had a boxer a few years back when I was going thru stage 4 colon cancer treatment and I was able to be there like I normally am for Gretchen.

Shelley would be great to watch any ones pet. I had a boxer a few years back when I was going thru stage 4 colon cancer treatment and I was able to be there like I normally am for Gretchen. Shelley was always there when I needed her and the thing that was the best is she didn't mind that Gretchen thought that she was a lap dog. Shelley treated her like family and helped her to not feel alone when I couldn't be there. I would definitely recommend Shelley to watch your pet. She takes care of them as if they are her own and if your animal got sick, she would do anything she can to make them better.

Shelley has taken care of my cat when I have gone out of town for the weekend. She makes sure that she has enough water, food and that her litter box stays clean. She also spends time with my cat and loves on her and puts a harness that I bought for my cat on her so that she can get some outside time, since I;m not there to give her that outdoor time ...

Shelley has taken care of my cat when I have gone out of town for the weekend. She makes sure that she has enough water, food and that her litter box stays clean.

Shelley treats my cat as if she is part of her own family. She has always done a great job taking care of my baby girl Sabrina.

It’s hard to take things literally, but I think I can confidently say dogs really are my best friends! I enjoy being around people sure, but nothing beats the joy, loyalty, and unconditional love bestowed by our furry companions. Growing up there were always dogs and cats in my family, so I’ve learned firsthand how to nurture and be responsible for other living creatures. I have tons of experience caring for small and large dogs of all breeds, as well as cats, lizards, turtles, snakes, frogs, and rats. My only Kryptonite are spiders and scorpions, but otherwise, the more animals surrounding me, the better!

I currently have two wonderful, playful dogs and four cats––so yes, it’s kind of a zoo in my household––and it’s just the way I want it! More the merrier is always my motto in life. All but one of my fur babies are rescues, so I totally support rescues and shelters. Nothing would make me happier than to add more furry friends into the mix. I know this sounds potentially crowded and chaotic, but I am fiercely loyal, kind, and trustworthy. The well-being of my fur babies is my number one priority and your beloved pup will instantly become a member of my family. I used to be a CNA, and so I am professionally trained to care for others. But beyond professional credentials, I’ve always been something of an empath, and so I truly treat others like I’d like to be treated. Love, respect, and responsibility are tenets I swear by.

For me the greatest reward is when I can say I really know a dog. Just like people, each pup has his or her unique personality, temperament, and triggers. Like any other relationship, I really value the time it takes to discover each pup’s spirit, and nothing beats that connection when you look into their eyes and they look into yours, and in that precious moment, you feel what true love and connection feels like. Every living creature embodies a unique spirit and energy, and I would relish the opportunity to not only meet but really get to know your best friend.

What Shelley would like to know about your dog

As a lover of all animals, your pup’s safety, health, and overall happiness will be of utmost importance to me. Your pup will become an instant family member as far as I’m concerned. If you’re concerned about my two dogs and four cats, I’d be happy to arrange a meet and greet so all the furry friends can mingle and see if everyone is jolly. My animals have been around each other and other animals, so they are super easy-going and friendly. For the absolute best care, the more information you can provide, the better service I can render. I’d want a full list of your pup’s diet, medication/illnesses, walking preferences, likes/dislikes, etc. I also believe in transparency and open communication, so feel free to get in touch anytime, anywhere. And if you want regular updates via text/photos/videos, do not hesitate to ask, I’m happy to give you a little peace of mind while you’re away from your beloved pup.

When Shelley watches your dog

As a dog mom, I’m already out and about every day walking my pups or taking them to their favorite dog parks. If your dog is up for it, I’d be happy to pile them into my car and we can go on some road trips to explore outside the neighborhood for some long hikes. I will keep to your dog’s routine while providing extra love and tenderness since your pup will be in a new environment. My home is basically set up for my animals’ comfort, so your pup is welcome anywhere and can nap on the couch or on the many dog beds. Not only will your pup get plenty of fresh air but also an unlimited supply of cuddles and kisses.
